Position Overview

Charles River Associates is seeking a Full Stack Agentic Developer to help build and evolve a web-based AI platform that enables experts to translate domain expertise into scalable, validated AI-driven workflows. This is a senior full stack engineering role for someone who began with strong product and platform skills and has advanced into LLM-powered agentic systems.

The product combines a React/Vite web client, a Node.js/TypeScript backend proxy, Azure-hosted services, and isolated remote execution environments where AI agents run tools against sandboxed project workspaces. This role bridges the application layer and the agent layer: user experience, APIs, session and file workflows, real-time streaming, custom agent runtime behavior, proprietary tools, model-provider integrations, prompt and context systems, reliability, and observability.

The ideal candidate is not a narrow frontend engineer, not a pure backend engineer, and not a prompt-only AI specialist. CRA needs a hands-on full stack developer who can design excellent product experiences, write production-grade TypeScript and React, extend Node.js/Express APIs, and also understand how agentic systems plan, use tools, recover from errors, stream activity, and produce work that users can inspect and trust.
